Product Description
Add a dash of wonder to your garden with Pansy ‘Northern Lights’. Flowering in autumn and spring, each velvety bloom shimmers in blended tones of violet, plum, orange and soft blue, echoing the magic of the aurora.
With a general height and spread of 15-25 cm, ‘Northern Lights’ Pansies are a perfect addition to borders, containers and baskets. They thrive in fertile, well-drained soil with full sun or partial shade, and are compact, free-flowering and delightfully easy to grow - carrying on the show while other flowers are starting to fade.
‘Northern Lights’ is one of the mixes included in the Winter/Spring Pansy Collection, alongside ‘Ocean Breeze’, ‘Lemoncello’ and ‘Autumn Blaze’. We recommend planting these Pansies with Bellis or Myosotis to complement their bold colouring and create eye-catching seasonal displays.

Growing at a glance…
Our plants are available in two main formats to suit different gardening needs and planting times: Maxi plug plants and garden-ready plug plants.
Maxi plugs are young, UK-grown plants that will need care and attention. Supplied in trays of 40 or 80, they measure approximately 6-9 cm in height with a 2.2 cm plug width. When potted up and grown for a few weeks, they are capable and frost-hardy enough for winter conditions.
For a more immediate planting solution, our garden-ready alternatives come in trays of 15 or 30 larger plugs, each up to 15 cm tall with a plug width of around 5 cm. These robust plants can be planted straight into beds, borders or containers upon arrival and are well suited for both spring and autumn planting - though they should be avoided during periods of severe frost.
Regardless of type, all plants arrive nursery-fresh in protective packaging and benefit from regular watering after planting to help roots establish. For best results, plant in a weed-free location with adequate sunlight and continue to deadhead or prune as needed to encourage healthy, prolonged growth.
